Imphal, August 29 2016:
Suspected underground militants snatched away four weapons from a Manipur Rifles team who were escorting FCI rice laden trucks from Jiribam towards Imphal near Barak river in Tamenglong district at around 5.15 pm today.
When a part of the escort team was having food inside a hotel near Barak river, some unidentified armed persons came inside the hotel and forcefully took them to a hilltop at gun point, said a source.
The MR personnel were however freed after being robbed of two AK-47 rifles and two Insas rifles along with fully loaded ammunition, added the source.
